I get this sometimes, Wed to Fri was in the hospital and she was going mad the whole time i was there, came home and Fri night she was quiet and again most of yesterday, last night started back on her routine. I think she was tired from being on the go constantly. I think they really do know our moods as i was emotional and in a different environment so she was not happy, get home and she chilled out.

I find sitting or lying for 10, do nothing and have a drink while rubbing my tummy gets her to move. If you are concerned you can ring the midwife and they will advise xx

I'm 24 wks too and my baby seems to be like this. Some days loads of movement then a say or two with a lot less. Quite different to my last pregnancy. This baby also seems to move a lot throughout the night, which isn't great for sleeping. I'm just trying to me more vigilant on days with less movement and if I think it has been too long doing something to make the baby move. Also trying not to be too concern about it on days with less movement x

Same here. Yesterday he was active non stop, where today only few times. But I noticed if I'm on the move a lot, he doesn't really kick (or I don't feel it) and the moment I sit down thete he goes again 🤣

I used to freak out during my last pregnancy with movements, although movements are very important! Try to remember you baby is not a robot will have busy days and quieter days just like us also if you are busy you might not have felt or remembered feeling movement, try to not let it worry you to much ❤️
